Wife is able to see online call log?? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have boost Mobile and my wife has att somehow she is able to see my call log and texts from her phone somehow I've googled it but haven't found anything helpful.. So I thought ide bring this question to the android community to see if anyone here has any thoughts or input to how or what she uses to do this!! Thanks in advance!!

Most likely because she has access to your Boost Mobile account so that she could log into it from any web browser and see your info. Either that or she has installed a spyware type app on your phone. Can't think of any other way this could occur.

Answering machine\Voicemail App?

Hi,
I'd like to know if there is any app around that does the work of an answering machine. An app that will probably answer the call after a specific amount of rings and save the callers' message on the SD card. This was an idea I got from a few years ago when we were discussion open software for cellphones. I'd love to know if it's already been done.
Thanks.
Anyone know of such an app?
google voice ??
I would vote for YouMail.
It actually downloads your VM messages from the "cloud" and stores them on your SD card.
It also has other nice features.
Best of all, everything is FREE!!!
I also use youmail its the best app out there for voice and its free vzw charges 2.99 for their visual voicemail.

Airvoice, but it does not work on my desire... Anyone know of anything else?
I use Hullomail.. you can tell it to use your gmail account as storage which is handy because if I miss call when I'm at my computer I can just play the message on my PC...

I haven't seen any such app yet. The apps mentioned in this thread are different.
What is asked for is a voicemail on the phone itself, not any 3rd party who stores your voicemail for you, after which you can download it.
No, what is asked for is an actual app on the phone that actually functions as a voicemail/answering machine and stores the voicemail directly on the sd card. Without redirecting the call to a 3rd party, and without requiring an internet connection anywhere in the process from accepting the voicemail to playing the voicemail.
But there is no such app, to my knowledge.

A stand-alone app like this would be pretty sweet actually. I think the phone providers would be a little ticked if someone were to write an app like this. I would buy it as i don't subscribe to an answering service on my cell (separate monthly charge for my plan.) Most of these 3rd party (cloud) services don't work in my region.

Same here.
Waiting for some developer to answer our questions and explain if this is even possible or not :-s
Hi all
I'm looking now for 1 Year for this kind of answer machine.
the only one that do that is until now ---> Airvoice
But, the developer stoped developing this app since HTC Hero.
So it works only on HTC Hero.
Look at the Market for Airvoice,and send, like me, a email to the Developer. Maybe he will finaly start again developing this app!
Greetings ivifly

[Q] Google Voice on a Cricket Eris

ATTN: Anyone with their Eris on Cricket -
Has anyone here successfully set up Google Voice on their Cricket flashed phone?
I'm attempting to get my ex-gf's set up with Google Voice. As you go through the setup process, and hit 'Activate', after a short minute or two, the activation Fails, with a message citing that Google Voice was unable to detect a valid phone number for the phone (implying the ACTUAL number, not the 'Voice' number).
(note: this is Plain Jane v1.0 (shouldn't matter), all PST settings in place properly, and the cricket_web_mms_v9.zip flash from Token419)
My next efforts will include taking /data/data/com.google.android.apps.googlevoice/shared_prefs/com.google.android.apps.googlevoice_preferences.xml and editing it in WordPad to include her phone numbers instead of mine.
Then I'm going to copy the whole com.google.android.apps.googlevoice folder from my /data/data into her /data/data, and reboot the phone.
My HOPE is that the number just needs to be thrown into this .xml file, and nothing more.
Has anyone else had any trouble with this, or needed to play with .xml files to get this to work? If so, did you set it up to work on Google.com/voice with a full web browser (computer) first, THEN set it up on the phone? Or did you use the phone first.
I will report my success rate here whenever I see her (hopefully this week?), but until then, I thought I'd see if someone found something more efficient or reasonable to do to get this to work (since what I'm doing seems a little excessive!)
Thank you in advance, ladies and gentlemen.

Have you done the full flash outlined in this thread?
http://www.howardforums.com/showthr...o-Flash-to-Cricket-with-Talk-Text-Wap-and-MMS
I was actually the first one on any of the forums to get MMS working on Cricket on our phones.
I did it by figuring it out (not using a method from any other phone).
And yes, all PST settings are in place 100%, and the cricket web MMS v9 flash is flashed to the phone, 100%.
More specifically, from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=730289
Cricket's forwarding commands are different than what is pre-programmed on Gtalk. I don't recall exactly, but I think instead of #740 to forward, it's #720 for Cricket....that may help...I got it set up right away after figuring that out.

Right, but that's not the problem.
Forwarding everything to Google Voice is not the problem at all. It's *73 and *74 and so on, virtually the same as Sprint.
The problem isn't using Google Voice the way some people use it, by having it text you, and using the web site.
The problem is, SPECIFICALLY, with the Google Voice app. When opening it for the first time, it tells you that it can't detect your phone number. In other words, your normal Cricket phone number.
I'm looking to have her put on the Google Voice app, so that instead of getting texts with your transcribed voice mails (many minutes after the voice mail), that the app brings it through the internet (like it does for me, on Verizon).
Without the Voice app, Google Voice might as well be like it is on the iPhone (since the GV+ app sucks), which is basically the same as a Dumb Phone uses it.
Bump? On mycricket.com they tell how to do unconditional call forwarding. So I know its possible. Although I don't see a feature under features in mycricket.com. So BuMp any got this working with Cricket?
Thanks,
MM

Looking for info or help here on a general ignorance issue. I have a pbx and i have a sip but wondering what i need to do to put all this together to make and recieve calls on a softphone. Im sorry its pure ignorance but looking on the internet for guides has come up with nothing useful.
SPecifically i have a sipgate account and a free pbxes.com account. Is there anything else i need for this to work?
I understand pbxes doesnt seem to supply a number to be reached at, what would be necssary to make this happen?
Also What softphone would people recommend?
Yes, I understand this isn't directly related but Im at a lack of options here and hoping some kind person would see fit to give me a hand.

Setting up softphone on Android
Hi iheartdroid,
If you want to make and receive calls on a softphone, I would recommend the Orbtalk Softphone, available on Google Play.
It should work with all VoIP accounts. I'm afraid I'm not an expert on PBXes so I wouldn't be able to advise you on how to set up a number to be reached at.
Feel free to give the Orbtalk Softphone a try, and if you run into any trouble please ask and I'll try to help.

Is it possible to give suggestions to Samsung/Google?

Hi, as one of my friends phone was about to get stolen when we were out in town a few days ago, I wanted some tracking and anti-theft software on my GS2. I found out how the pre-installed software from Samsung works (go to http://www.samsungdive.com/DiveMain.do and register your phone, and then enable tracking under the phone's security settings). But it is a very poor anti-theft solution if you ask me, even thou it works just as well as any solution on the market. First of all, if GPS is disabled and you try to track your phone using the Samsung website, it will ask you "do you want to enable GPS?"..that's just plain stupid and I don't see why it can't force it to start. Second of all, if my phone got stolen I would expect it to get reset to factory settings at some point. In order to avoid this, the phone should ask for the same pincode it ask for when you enable/disable tracking. That way it should always be possible to find the phone if it ever got stolen. I figured it was a simple yet good idea and wanted to feature request it for Android, but I couldn't find any information on where you can do so. Do any of you guys know? Or do any of you developers talk to the Android developers or do they roam in a certain part of the XDA forum?

Please try to contact Samsung/Google via the official contact/support email addresses first.
As they are using help desk systems, each email to those addresses become documented as a request or ticket and will be worked through in some way.
Every other contact (via personal network or a free/internet forum) is "in-official" and could lead into a loss of your input.
Good luck !

It doesn't on my phone. It remotely turns on GPS automatically with no prompt on the phone.

EMERGENCY !!! How Can I Retrieve a Deleted Number?

i got a htc inspire 4g running absolution 3.7 (based on cm7). someone called me on my phone yesterday and had the number on my call log.. i didnt save it. by accident, i deleted the number from my call log. is there any way to get it back? is it still stored in my phone?
Ask your mobile operator
Ask your mobile operator to tell you the number of caller who called you, they might have that info in their servers. Tell them it is very very very very important to you, otherwise they don't bother to tell you anything. You have to make them believe that it was actually very important to you.
This is a long way out, but it might work.
I don't know any way to retrieve that no.. So wait for some other person on xda who can tell you a solution.
But my solution, use it when nothing works. Because my solution might work.

hi apourvi.. thank you for your reply.. the problem with asking tmobile this is that i'm on pre-paid with them.. i'm no longer a regular customer.. i called them saying that its an emergency and the whole nine.. but they said it was impossible to get me the number since i'm on pre-paid. let me know what you think.. thanks brother.
Search online website of your provider
Go online to your provider, check if they have some 'login' or 'register'.
Go online to your provider and look at your history there. They might provide some info on your mobile records.
And I think there should not be any problem in retrieving a call log for your provider, even if your on Pre-paid.
For e.g. if police have suspect a phone no. (in case of crime cases), they ask the provider for call log info, and they get it, whether its pre paid or post paid.
